you get use to either system after doing work with both systems. As an apprentice draftsman I often get things required in imperial system , ive done it so much that the imperial system is easy to imagine......as long as they give me within 1/8's of an inch otherwise I pull out my calculator and convert to metric to grasp the size.

16ths of an inch is absurd

[QUOTE=ofDooM;13505224]well, i meant as in, my teachers expect me to use fractions other than decimals. this stuff is quite basic to me.[/QUOTE]

of course they expect fractions rather than decimals , because before 1991 the metric system wasnt adopted by the U.S (even though they still dont use it) thus they have becomed conditioned to prefer fractions , because you could liken it to your home language , its what you are most familiar with

the problem is at some point of details the expressions of numbers via fractions become absurd

i just dont understand america...

well, im off to bed everyone. later.

later you anti-american nazi

[QUOTE=Dave*Grohl;13501809]Hey sunshine, post more pics of your boobies please[/QUOTE]

Y'know, I kinda ignored you before.

But.

That's it.

Leave me alone =/

An offhand joke here or there is one thing, but you really should just stop acknowleding my existance.

The imperial system is for people in a country too stupid to change to metric. Im not normally hating Americans, and I know that many of you would change it if you could but come on. They thought it would ruin to Canadian economy and it did very little, the longer you guys wait the more ****ed over youll be.

yeah so I just got back from chili peppers concert at philly. Surreal. I will post more info tomorrow, I'm off to bed now.

well i don't think waiting will hurt us any, but i do feel we should convert sooner or later. the imperial unit really has little use in science anyways. we never use the imperial units in physics nor calculus.

Guys...

So I have a wee bit of a problem.
The other night, at this concert type thing here in Alice(it was an opening ceremony) some kids came and wiped out my mate then ran off, and were never seen again. A few of their friends were standing around and over heard my mate call them fags. Yesterday at the bus stop, six or seven of them rocked up and started on him. Luckily, they're not completely stupid and didnt hurt a girl(one our mates stood in between us) and nothing happened.

Today, there was like 14 people. Well **** that I thought to myself. Anyway, once again they started on my mate(for some background, my mate is built like a house, he's huge. Not fat, just incredibly muscley), and I decided to just get him on his bus. So, now theres a bit of a crowd watching and I'm trying to get him on the bus. I get him on there, and then they start on me. Now, Im 6ft and not quite as muscley as my mate, but not many people mess around with me. So now it's fourteen onto, well, me.

So my mate gets off the bus again, and another mate of mine from way back shows up. He's there backing us up, but eventually he cruises. One of the bus drivers tries to break it up, to no avail. I get Dean on the bus again, and while theyre busy talking amongst each other, i get another couple of my mates who know these kids to talk to them.

My mate, dean, gets off the bus AGAIN, but luckily he get's back on when I yelled at him.

So, the problem is, fifteen or so kids want to fight me and one mate. 15-2.

can i kindly request you stop talking about maths so i can post?
/failed maths

my room is full of random ****. think last nigt was good:)

Hows your head?

So my friends all went and got high without me. I'm starting to wonder about them.

the solution is quite simple and ive used it before. i dunno where you live so it may not

go to other towns for a week or two. i always find new towns are awesome places to go... theyll hopefully drop it soon.

just coming up to 8.40. i have wierd sleep patterns, revolving around getting up early. and in that 15 mins i downed 2 beers and a lot of vodka

The closest town is five hours away :p Australia being spread out ftw. As for the bigger crew, it's complicated. We have alot of aboriginals here, and aboriginals have HUGE families. Like, personal army type families. I could get like a crew big enough to pwn fifty or so of them, but then it'd turn into a huge gangland thing. But I might just stay clear and let them drop it, like you said.

woah, im listening to the EP i swapped for beer last night and i love it!!

its awesome pure heavy metal, not a sign of any screamo **** or anything

Mikey want!

People like you, who act like those of us who are happy living at the bottom of society arent people, you make me sick.[/QUOTE]

Stiving to be at the bottom of society is one of the stupidest things to work towards. Everybody in their right mind wants to be rich. Even the rich could use more money. You have some serious mental problems if you think otherwise.

No i dont. Egotistical morons who think money is everything have head problems.

When you're sat alone in your big house with your money and possesions, i'll be sat in my small house with my loving family and i'll be the one laughing at people like you.
